What is a "toggle" and how does it control the misting cycle?

Answer:                        

A "toggle" is the little switch around the dial of the timer that controls the amount of mist that waters your sprouts. In some  EasyGreen™ timer models, these are black switches surrounding the timer dial; in others, they are tiny red switches. The images below show both types of toggles. 

Each toggle will activate the mist generator for approximately 15 minutes. You will need to adjust the number of toggles you "switch on," depending on your climate conditions and time of year. 

Three different toggle settings suit most climates around the world.  Bear in mind that sun rays reach different areas of a room throughout the day and in different seasons. 

  • Should you suspect mold, use the toggle settings for "Hot Humid Climate" indicated below.
  • Avoid placing the machine near appliances that create heat, such as oven or dishwasher. Keep the machine away from direct sunlight. You may cover it with a towel to shade.
